I know nothing of Randy beyond his Top 40 hit and this song, which a power
pop friend of mine picked up on many years ago and turned me on to. I agree,
it's a great one. Always cool when you make a "connection" like this with
another listener who hears what you do, Paul!

Two of the above songs were written by me and Bud Rehak. I'm The Sky was
written by Laura Nyro. There is one song I actually wrote for the 4 Seasons and
it's in their Dawn album. It's called (Seems Like) Only Yesterday. Thanks
for the kind words, Michel.
